As I already mentioned in the past. If there a re no new games added for a week, it doesn’t mean we stand still. There is always lots of things going on and fixes are implanted. Past weeks I did some important updates and fixes here mentioned below:

Great news! GOG.com released Escape from Monkey Island in there catalog. They Already released Monkey Island 3 – Curse of Monkey Island for Mac, and now they released the Escape from Monkey Island for windows. But no worries, I added the port to Porting Kit so you can install the Windows version into Porting Kit and play it on your Mac! Works great! Have fun!

Install is Simple:
1. Get Porting Kit or Crossover if you don’t have it yet.
2. Then download the GOG.com setup file from Escape from Monkey Island from GOG (Remember to download the “offline backup setup files”) into your download folder.
3. Then in Porting Kit search the game in the library –> server tab and click install.
4. After installation of the game, “exit” the GOG installer.
5. Click “Play” to start the game! Have fun!

Game description:Escape from Monkey Island continues in the hilarious tradition of its critically hailed and award-winning predecessors, The Secret of Monkey Island, Monkey Island 2: Le Chuck’s Revenge, and The Curse of Monkey Island. Developed by the team who created LucasArts’s irreverent classic Sam and Max Hit the Road, Escape features an original cinematic story full of drama, intrigue, and of course, sidesplitting humor. The game is highlighted by hundreds of challenging puzzles, set amidst dozens of rich and brilliantly rendered backgrounds.

On June 21, 2018 / Uncategorized / Comments Off on New Steam ports working again (PK 2.9.444)

Hello everyone! In case you have tried to install a Steam port recently, you probably received the infamous error “Content servers unreachable”. Well, don’t worry. That bug was just fixed :)

Update the Porting Kit for the latest version (2.9.444), and newly created Steam ports should work like a charm. The fix is made by PK during the port installation. In case you have any port with the bug, reinstall it with the latest version, or, if you prefer, you can fix it manually.

On June 20, 2018 / Uncategorized / Comments Off on Vampire the Masquerade Las Vegas vs Popular Slots

Vampire: The Masquerade-Las Vegas is a browser slot game, using the setting of the popular video game, Vampire: The Masquerade. The developer company White Wolf and Foxium had struck a deal to license the Vampire game for a slot machine game, in 27 January, 2016. In November 2017, they released Las Vegas, a 5×3 slot game themed around Vampire, featuring a vampire and his prey in a modern Las Vegas setting.

The BasicsVampire: The Masquerade-Las Vegas takes its theme from the RPG computer game, Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines. The computer game was highly acclaimed as one of the best RPGs and it’s titles being continued seems a good idea for it’s fans. The Las Vegas slot game has an advantage than other games, because of it’s well knows developer White Wolf. The theme is dark and gothic and it creates a fantastic playing atmosphere. The graphic details are phenomenal and occasionally rain drops hit your screen. As always, the video game has shown to its fans a well written story and all of its characters give an impact to the player. The same happens to the slot game Las Vegas. It begins with a story and you have to keep playing in order for the story to progress.

The game is played on a 5×3 grid with various possible matching sequences that can help the story progress. Just like in-game, there is a Blood bar and a Disciple bar, disciple is a vampire power in-game, that helps interact with the people more easily and by using vampire powers. Discipline, in Las Vegas, is listed as Pick Me bonus title. When the Disciple bar or Blood is full, based on how you played the slot game, a new sequence appears that can trigger a free spin.

The ConsThe Vampire: Masquerade-Las vegas has a real good rating for it’s originality unlike the other online slot games. Unfortunately is only a very few online casino websites including its developer. The popular slots games, like Lucky Lady Charm, Book of Ra and so on are even more well known than Vampire, because they are found not only online, but also outside of the screen, in slot bars and physical casinos. But not everyone is a fan of vampires, most people don’t even want to hear about fantastic creatures, and most of the gamblers like to play the popular ones, because they are easy to play, unlike Las Vegas that requires different type of spins in order to achieve a story progression. The Admiral Casino has the most popular slot games in its reserve. And has a higher popularity because it’s everywhere, outside in the world and also inside, on the screens of its users.

It looks like GOG.com updated their game library encouraging the GOG Legacy client. However, this are not the files Porting Kit uses. You need the “Offline backup game Installer” file(s). Using the GOG galaxy setup files will result in install failures. So make sure to use the “Offline backup game Installer” only! We will implant a feature in Porting Kit that recognize the wrong GOG.com galaxy files and will ask to download the correct ones.

I already asked them to at least expand the option, so you can see the file instantly so you are able to download it.
